He will provide.

The bank promised me $25 for a referral..... I was planning on buying a lot of WotA with it to make gloves for my siblings. I had my order filled out all ready when I found out that I was not going to get the money after all. This was quite frustrating, and slightly irritating, seeing as they had over 3 months to tell me this, and multiple chances to point this out. BUT I am human, and I make mistakes. I really have no place critiquing them for making a mistake.
My mom offered to give me the money to buy the purchase. I was tempted to take it, but I really didn't feel like I could I just didn't feel at peace about it.
So I told her no. She offered again, and even though I wanted to accept, and didn't feel I could, and I said no. Suddenly the words I hear all the time and forget time and time again, came back to me. "He will provide". So I uttered them aloud, and told her I knew He would.

So the same day I promised I would wait on Jesus and see what He would do. I have to say I am so happy I did so and I am continuing too. :D

Right after I found out about the bank, mom opened a package that a friend of her's had sent for Leyla and I, full of craft supplies.
Now, I like a lot of acrylic, and I use a lot, but for the gloves I wanted to have natural fibers. I had been debating with myself over using acrylic for a set of gloves, and I finally decided that if I could find an acrylic and natural BLEND I would use it.
And at the bottom of the box I found 3 skeins of BRAND NEW Lion Brand Boucle.
Which is Mohair and Acrylic. It's not my favorite yarn in the world, but the Lord provided it and even had it met my criteria.

Fast forward to last night. I was on a word document looking through my order and trying to thin it out so I could still order a few things that I had to get.

A friend of mine, A, requested socks for Christmas. I had her pick out a color, and had added it to the order. Last night I realized I had to remove it in order to be able to get everything else I needed.
I didn't want to. I DIDN'T want to. *I* Didn't WANT to.
But I prayed about it. After just about crying several times and back and forth emotionally fighting myself, I finally knew that is what I need to do. So I took it off the order.
I opened up Rav..... I wanted to see if a certain friend had PMed me back. She hadn't so I closed Ravelry. Less than 5 seconds later, I just felt like I should open it again. So I did. And as I opened it, I saw a new message notification. I figured it was my friend, and opened it to see what was going on.
It wasn't. I found this in my message box:
"Hello there,
I think I have some sock yarn kicking around. Would you like it? It needs a good home, and since I don’t knit socks just yet, it is just sitting there being lonely.
Please pass along your addy to me- the sooner you do, the sooner it will be in the mail!
Thanks,
__________"

The Lord is wonderful. I still have several other "needs" on my yarn list.... Things that are mainly for gifts, but I have one thing that is more of really, really, really want it..... I don't know if He will choose to let me get it.... but I am looking forward to finding out. =)
Forever in my Father's hands,
Adanna
